Givealittle call out to our supporters and all cat lovers out in the community.

Bronwyn Reader from Cat Rescue Christchurch

givealittle.co.nz....


As mentioned in the givealittle we have had a $17,000 vet bill for January and am asking if anyone can donate a little monies to the cause.  Every $5 + you donate to givealittle (they will provide a receipt) where you can claim back 30% in your year end tax calculation.  Small donations by a lot of people all add up to a lot.  This is the silly kitten session and hence costs are always high at this time.


We are busy collecting free fruit and jars and making jams/chutney's and fresh tomato and plum sauce to sell at our stalls and making crafts (custions and cat beds etc) with donated goods.  So we are trying to fundraise anyway we can with lots of volunteer support.


We will have a stall at the Sumner Market this Sunday the 12th and the Halswell Market on the 26th so would love to see you. 


I have attached two recent articles about what we do and how we help stray cats and the resulting kittens that come from unsprayed animals.


Any questions please go to our website or pm me and ask.
Thanks for reading

Sporting the bright purple and orange campaign shirts, these wonderful walkers hit the Auckland waterfront and marched from Mission Bay to Kohimarama, raising awareness for bowel cancer and the importance of early detection along the way.
